Hair Problems

Hair loss

Hair loss, also known as hair fall or alopecia, is the shedding of hair
from the scalp or body. It can be caused by various factors, including genetics,
hormonal changes, stress, poor diet, certain medical conditions, and environmental
influences.

Alopecia Areata​

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles, leading to hair loss, usually in small, round patches on the scalp or other areas of the body. The condition can affect anyone, regardless of age or gender, but it often starts in childhood or young adulthood.

Dandruff

Dandruff is a common scalp condition characterised by the shedding of white or yellowish flakes of dead skin. It can cause itching, irritation, and sometimes redness of the scalp. While it’s not contagious or dangerous.

Tinea Capitis​

Tinea capitis, also known as scalp ringworm, is a contagious fungal
infection that affects the scalp, hair shafts, and sometimes the skin around the scalp.
It’s caused by dermatophyte fungi, which thrive in warm, moist environments and can
invade the outer layer of the scalp, causing hair loss and scaling. Tinea capitis is
most common in children but can affect adults as well
